Benchmade 960 Osborne knife: Telepathic EDC

There is nothing here in the striking BM 960 Osborne that you will not like: a 3.12" D2 razor sharp, polished blade, gorgeous red aluminum handle with carbon fiber (or G10) inserts which are perfectly machined, a perfect thumbstud, wicked fast deployment, solid lockup, matching polished clip that holds well, purple titanium backspacer (I love that), and the strong and fast Axis lock, and perfect workmanship throughout. And all this weighs a mind-blowingly light 2.2 ounces. This is the type of lightweight but very strong construction I am always heralding to be the standard of today's EDC and Tactical knife. But alas entrance to this party is expensive for the perfect little EDC knife...expect definitely over a hundred bucks for your ticket. Is it worth it? Well reference my "Bradley Alias" video for that discussion but I'll apply the same philosophy here: it's a machine that's seemingly perfect in form and function that will deliver that intangible enjoyment that makes it hard to put down. Heirloom quality, fast, strong, beautiful, and light. It's a 'telepathic' EDC and yes NCs, it's worth it.

I can't believe mine is 2 years old already. Still solid, still without any problems, although the D2 steel needs resharpening fairly regularly. I love the axis lock, and probably will never buy another blade that doesn't have it.

Having seen your newer vids, I just ran across this. Interesting to see the progress and change in your delivery, Mr Nutn! The old way is as good as new - just different. Heckuva beautiful blade, esp at its 2.2 weight.
